compact fluorescent bulbs...extremely slow

Not only that, but they often don't work in motion sensor fixtures
because they are not a 100% resistive load. That can confuse the
motion-sensing circuitry -- I know it did on mine, so I had no choice
but to use an incandescent.
That's strange. I would expect the motion sensing part to be unrelated
to the load. I would think it doesn't see the load at all, until it
turns on, and then it should work with any load.
But you know what happened with yours.
